S/S Header Stud Kit - M8 x 1.750in OAL (12)

The S/S Header Stud Kit - M8 x 1.750in OAL (12) from ARP is a premium stainless steel fastener set engineered for high-performance engine builds and header assembly applications. Designed specifically for GM LS-series engines, this kit delivers the reliability and corrosion resistance demanded by performance enthusiasts, engine builders, and restoration shops. The set of 12 studs ensures you have complete coverage for a full header installation without compromise.

Each M8 stud measures 1.75 inches in overall length and features a polished stainless steel construction that resists oxidation and thermal cycling stress. The 12-point nut design provides superior grip and reduced fastener damage during installation and removal, a critical advantage in header work where repeated disassembly is common. Stainless construction outperforms standard steel in high-temperature engine bay environments, preventing galling and seizing while maintaining consistent clamp load across multiple heat cycles—essential for maintaining header gasket seal integrity.

LS engine owners, street rod builders, and professional machine shops rely on ARP header studs for long-term durability and appearance. This kit is ideal for original header reinstallation, upgrade projects, or performance builds where engine temperature and vibration stress fasteners aggressively. The polished finish adds visual appeal under the hood while the stainless material eliminates corrosion concerns—making this set suitable for both show vehicles and daily drivers exposed to harsh weather conditions.
